You’re welcome, Linda. Most people only love the abundance of spring, the heat of summer and the brilliance of fall, but I love the bleak and stark nature of winter. I love the trees without leaves, the fading or even dead foliage, and the brisk air. I much prefer winter to the heat and humidity of summer. 🙂
This is seriously up close and personal! It makes me think of a theater curtain. It also seems like there is a whole lot of activity there, biologically speaking – it just has that look.
As is so often true with me, I was after color and shape or line. Looking at it again now, I almost think I was too close, but how else to show those colors and shapes without distraction. I guess if you look at this photo on a smart phone, it won’t seem so intimidating.
Romancing Reality 
I love the fading of nature in the autumn. 🙂

Me, too. I think it may often be overlooked as we concentrate on colorful fall leaves. Thanks for writing, Cathy.
